The role of informal institutions in the use of forest resources in Latin America por Pacheco, P., Barry, D.M., Cronkleton, P., Larson, A.M.

“…The dichotomy between formal and informal institutions take on relative importance, it is their interaction that matters in assessing human behavior. Three areas of behavior that affect forest resource use by smallholders and communities are examined: (1) the interface of formal rules, often contained in written laws, and practiced ‘rules of the game’ that guide how smallholders and communities control, allocate, legitimize and enforce land and forest tenure rights, (2) local systems for forest resource use and management under the imposition of formal regulations and models, and (3) smallholder interaction with markets influenced by the constraints and opportunities produced by formal regulations. …”
